Reason for being broke





www.jusgal.blogspot.com - one of my favourite sites to buy clothes. I've bought quite a few pieces there and just this month I've spent the most with them. Can't wait for the clothes to arrive.
Another place where I bought the most stuff from is Caren's shop at Chinatown - Lovenest. Quirky shop design with lots of individualistic pieces for everybody. It takes an acquired eye to spot the things that really fit you but it will definitely set you aside from the main crowd of jeans and t-shirts. Too bad no pictures to post.
And my newfound latest past time - Bra Shopping! GSS is here and bras are finally cheaper. Got 2 Triumph ones for only 39.90 and planning to get more today at the last day sale at PS. Although it is quite embarrassing to be caught dead shopping for bra, but cheap and good ones are definitely worth the embarrassment.

Tribute to Pegasus

My colleagues at Pegasus! Jansen, Carol, Jane, Raymond, Virginia, me, Serine, Sue-Ann, Jewel, Sylwin, Karin & Jenny. (Clockwise from the top left)

Utell / Pegasus. Not many know what this company does or what it stands for. I have swear to myself not to write about the complaints, whining and bitching about work. So this will be the first and last post on my job (my last job)

I'm a service delivery executive. My accounts/clients are hotels and they look for me when they have problem opening up inventory or rates or commission payment to TA (Travel agents). I am a loanshark, cum report churner, cum customer service, cum trainer, cum consultant. I am measured by how many of my hotels pay on time, how many of them sign up within the stipulated time, how well I do my filters.

Sounds profound? it is. Hotels don't know our functions but they can't do without us.

Do I like my job scope? not as stressful as hotel / property level. but i do have to handle challenging tasks that I am clueless about. I have to take initiative to ask questions and follow up my cases. Work is own time own target, but if I cant meet the targets I set for myself, I am screwed.

But end of the day, I like working here because of the people. my colleagues are truly a helpful and happy bunch. Much better from where I used to come from.

I want to fly away!!!

from work, from Singapore!

No, not frustrated, just caged. Why do we work? why do we have to earn money?

But it's ok. I will retire by 25.
